Should We Regulate Black Friday Sales?

Three people dead in just a few hours, the evil shoppers need to be stopped. We could put serial numbers on shopping carts, you would need a permit to use one. Background checks for all who show up before opening time, and a $200 tax stamp to camp on store property. Store onwners and and toy manufactures held liable for such killings.
How else could we stop the madness??

Wanna guess who she supported in the election?
She does not work, never has. Sits at the house and spends her husbands money.
I could go on how nuts she is...
Why don't they just pass out numbers, first come, first served?
Is that what our society has become?
A need to pass out numbers to keep from trampling a man to death over Walmart merchandise?
I think it goes far deeper than that, into a subject that many don't want to talk about, or accept.[xx(]
heres my solution:
do nothing. allow thigns to take their natural course. as these sales get more and more out of control, less and less civilized and intelligent people will attend. this would mean that, over time, the only people going to these things would be low class, ignorant, uncivilized savages and i for one am all for them killing themselves/eachother in droves. natural selection.
We already have laws against false advertising, bait & switch, retail fraud, etc. We need less regulation of EVERYTHING, not more.
nope. the last thing we need in this country is more government involvement in out lives. isnt that the opposite direction than most of us here want to go in?

Kevin,.....this time I agree with you 100%.
Find something to complain about though,.....please![:0]
Then there are those stiletto shoes. They are named after a weapon. We need a special tax stamp, and extensive background checks for those.
How many of you were kicked, or had your hand stepped on on the playground? We subject our innocent children to the evil of shoes every day. They bear the scars to prove our negligence.
In conclusion: The world would be a safer place without shoes, and if you doubt me, look at the shoe prints on that poor Wal-Mart employee's face.

Seems I remember something like this happening over a Who concert in '76, only 11 were dead, numerous injuries. No more "festival" seating was the result.
Oh, and they were probably mostly white kids. Just a guess.

Possibly,.....but I was not a WHO fan.
Big difference between an arena that holds 50K plus, and WalMart.
Nice try to avoid the issues of scumbuckets, and their attitudes that live in this country currently though.

How so, Mark? Point is, people died in an act of mass stupidity, over aquisition of a product.
